Pippi Longstocking

Pippi Longstocking.
Astrid Lindgren and Lauren Child.

Tommy and Annika have a new exciting neighbour, Pippi Longstocking. She isn't like all the other children they know, she is wild and very, very funny (and can carry a horse around).

Pippi thinks nothing of wrestling a circus strongman, dancing with burglars or tugging a bulls tail.

She loves to search for new exciting things and every day is a new adventure.

I loved this book and my mum loved it too, we really giggled as we read some of the funny things Pippi did.
